Going back further, was Busby respected by City fans in the 40’s/50’s/60’s/70’s? Anyone?
Before my time.

Yes, but only up to a point, there was always some slight reservation, dont know why. When we won the title under Joe, Busby was one of the first to ring and congratulate him. Of course, he captained city before going to Liverpool.

he d be still spinning in the air

There wasn't anyone near him when he did it. As you say showing total disrespect, we'd have got murdered in the media if one of ours did that...... and rightly so

We did get murdered when Mario did similar in a fucking pre-season friendly against LA Galaxy and Mancini hooked him straight away.

Anthony is like that guy who City used to have on at half time doing 2000 keepie uppies and balancing the ball on his nose but no chance of ever making it as a professional footballer unless the rags fall for it.

Yes, because he was a gentleman, rather than some sour-faced, mind-game player and great friends with Joe Mercer.

Imagine doing that in front of someone like Mike Doyle, Tommy Smith, Norman Hunter (or a few of his other Leeds teammates). He'd be on his way to Jupiter now.

I was a full back, if he did it in front of me he'd be going to the fucking hospital and I wouldn't even wait around to be shown the red card.

Yeh what a bastard that Jesus was, taking away a man's living.

On a side issue, has any film in the history of ergh films been quoted more than Life of Brian ?

Certainly not on here.

You played it for her, you can play it for me.

Brilliant film

Airplane runs it close, Shirley?

Over Macho Grande?

I'll never get over Macho Grande.


@Groke it would be very close

The llama hasn't made the provisional Spain squad for the world cup, shame.

 

[bluealf]

Wish pep would just concentrate and comment just how good we are and stop bigging up the likes of them cunts

It is his biggest fault and how after this long he hasn't clicked on or somebody hasn't told him that we fucking hate it is beyond me.

Of course, some on here will say that is childish and we are bigger than that etc but they are wrong, utd are to be vilified for as long as possible, never forget their poxy banner.

Cunts, they are absolute cunts Pep, please take note.

They are not the rivals to us under Pep that they were during Bobby's time.

Roberto had the benefit of seeing Taggart on the other bench !

Very true he didn't have to put up with their patronising , belittling hypocrisy whilst they were lording it over every **** and we were at our lowest point
